Overview
- Fonda announced the relaunch on Wednesday with a signed statement alleging a coordinated federal campaign to silence critics in government, media, academia, the judiciary and entertainment.
- More than 550 figures across film, television and music publicly endorsed the effort, with the full list posted online and open for additional signatures.
- Organizers describe the initiative as nonpartisan and caution media companies against capitulating to government coercion or censorship.
- The move follows the brief removal and subsequent return of Jimmy Kimmel’s ABC show after criticism from FCC chair Brendan Carr, a flashpoint cited across coverage.
- Formal tactics are still being set, but the group signals readiness for public defiance, mass mobilization, collective economic pressure and cultural solidarity while invoking the 1947 committee led by Henry Fonda.
